City water bill is CRAZY high… no way I could let that build up 3+ months.

Public service announcement. If your city water bill is high check to make sure you don’t have an easily fixable plumbing issue like a running toilet. I had a toilet water fill valve that would stick and it ran while I was away on vacation for a long weekend and the bill was crazy high that month. If you hear the sound of water running in your toilet tank you need to fix that shit right away. All the parts in the tank of a toilet are easy to replace, $20 worth of plastic from Home Depot or ace. Real easy instructions or pay someone to do it.

I fixed all of my plumbing issues but still had an unreasonably high water bill. I asked for it to be reviewed but they never got to me before I moved out of the city to the county... for which I still rely on the city's water supply for some ungodly reason.
